BIM MONKEY
Platform
BIM Monkey accumulates your firm's drawing standards, correction history, and project context — then executes against them. Every capability below runs on top of that shared foundation. All included in every plan.
Rules your team sets — applied on every project, every machine, automatically. Set once, enforced everywhere, loaded before every session starts.
Every approval and edit teaches the platform. Output improves with every generation, for your firm specifically — not averaged across other firms and not shared outside your account.
Your firm's repeating workflows, codified as named commands. Standards your senior architects follow become executable instructions any team member can invoke in one line.
01
Verify occupancy classifications, egress path requirements, and accessible route compliance directly against your model — without leaving Revit. Findings are returned as a structured list you can act on immediately.
Compliance notes are saved as project notes and loaded automatically in every future session on that project.
02
Your completed permit sets become the reference library every generation draws from. Output matches your callout strings, sheet numbering, and detail assemblies — not a generic template built for no one in particular.
Every approval and correction is captured as a generation rule and applied to everything that follows. The platform gets more accurate the more you use it.
Only a licensed architect reviewing their own firm's output writes directly to the training loop. Corrections flow from the professional who is contractually responsible for the work — not from an automated pipeline, a third-party platform, or a generative process running without human review.
03
Upload a marked-up PDF from your design team, contractor, or reviewing authority. Banana Chat reads each annotation — dimension callouts, cloud markups, text notes — maps the correction to the right element in your open model, and applies it directly in Revit. No manual re-entry.
Works with standard PDF redline workflows. Every applied correction is captured and contributes to your firm's correction history.
04
The intelligence layer has three levels: Firm Memory stores rules that apply on every project; Project Notes load facts specific to one model; Generation Standards capture your correction history and enforce it automatically. Together they mean the platform never asks the same question twice.
05
Banana Chat builds your sheet set against your firm's numbering format, view templates, and layout conventions — learned from your drawing history. Tell it what you need and it executes the full sequence without you touching the ribbon.
Works across the full set at once, not one sheet at a time.
06
Any workflow your team runs more than once can become a named skill — stored in your firm account and invokable by any team member in a single instruction. The standards your senior architects follow become executable commands anyone can run.
And when a task falls outside the 700+ built-in methods, Banana Chat writes and compiles Revit API code on the spot — executing it directly against your live model without a plugin update. The ceiling on what it can query or modify is Revit itself, not the current plugin version.
07
The audit pass knows what your permit sets require. Ask Banana Chat to review the set and it returns a structured list of issues — empty sheets, missing views, unlabeled rooms, code flags — before the PDF goes out. Findings save as project notes and load automatically in every future session on that model.
08
Dimensions follow the spacing standards and annotation rules your firm has established — extracted from your uploaded CD sets and applied automatically. Every string is a live, editable Revit dimension, not a graphic overlay.
09
Pull live zoning district, allowed uses, setback requirements, height limits, and FAR by address. Banana Chat knows the envelope your building has to fit before it places a single element — not after.
10
Auto-generate OpenStreetMap-based site context maps. Drop a parcel address into Banana Chat and it builds a street map and places it directly on your cover sheet — no GIS software, no manual export.
Platform
BIM Monkey is building integrations with platforms across the AEC space — connecting its generation and standards layer directly into the tools architects already use for coordination, specification, and project delivery.
Rather than adding another tool to the stack, BIM Monkey embeds into existing workflows — so output lands in the right place without manual handoffs or export steps.
Integration work spans BIM coordination platforms, project management tools, and spec writing software. Each integration is designed to carry firm standards and project context across the connection — not just pass files.

Platform
The BIM Monkey Partner API lets AEC platforms connect directly to the generation, correction, and intelligence layers — without requiring a Revit license or BIM Monkey subscription on the calling side. Pass model data in, get back a complete NCS-organized CD plan with sheets, details, schedules, and CSI spec sections.
The API is designed for platforms that want to embed BIM Monkey's generation quality into their own product. Only licensed architects reviewing their own firm's output write directly to the training loop — partner submissions are quarantined until a BIM Monkey curator promotes them.
Partner API keys are issued by request. Full documentation →
